Episode Synopsis

At the Big Ears Music Festival, KGNU’s Monte Dube interviewed composer and pianist Hania Rani about her musical upbringing in Poland, her evolution from classical training into experimental and electronic music, and her global career shaped by Berlin, Iceland, and major recording projects. She also discussed her new orchestral work Nonfiction, inspired by a rediscovered Warsaw Ghetto composer, and reflected on music as a way to create connection, resilience, and a sense of aliveness.
